This solution predicts the evolution in time of the Duffing equation and unveils qualitative and quantitative system behavior when the values of the fractal parameter varies, and how these affect the frequency, the wavelength, and the oscillation amplitude from the start of the motion. Comparison of the amplitude-time response curves over the selected time-interval with those obtained from numerical simulations confirms the accuracy of the derived analytical solution.
